Chapter 671: Brigade Commander: Even if you are the Corps Commander, you are under my jurisdiction!
Chapter 671: Brigade Commander: Even if you are the Corps Commander, you are under my jurisdiction!
"Brigade Commander, who is my direct superior?"
Li Yunlong realized that there was no corps organization in the Eighth Route Army yet, so who would command him in the future?
The brigade commander restrained his smile and said seriously: "The independent corps belongs to the 386th Brigade and is temporarily under my command!"
"what?"
Old Li was completely confused. He didn't expect that after all these twists and turns, he was still under the command of the brigade commander. It seemed that he would never be able to escape from the brigade commander's clutches in this life.
"Brigade Commander, ah..."
Li Yunlong sighed, not knowing what to say.
After a minute or two of silence, Lao Li finally spoke up: "Brigade Commander, I'd like to ask how many people are in our corps?"
At this juncture, the corps system has not yet become a formal organization of ours. We have only organized a corps on a pilot basis in the northwest, but that was only of a defensive nature and had no reference value for a field force.
“At present, the Corps system is a pilot project of our team. We want to see how much combat effectiveness we can exert under the Corps system.
Therefore, the Northwest Headquarters does not have a very clear regulation on the number of staff, and any number between 10,000 and 100,000 is acceptable.
There are only a few basic requirements for your independent regiment. You must report the organization and establishment on time, and you are absolutely not allowed to hide anything.
No violation of military discipline is allowed.
The organization is responsible for half of the funding, and the equipment is allocated according to the establishment."
The brigade commander conveyed the organization's current requirements for the independent corps, which was also a red line for Li Yunlong's operation of the independent regiment.
"Yes, Brigade Commander, the Independent Corps is guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Li Yunlong stood upright like a javelin and saluted the brigade commander.
The brigade commander glanced at Li Yunlong. He knew that the guy in front of him had eight hundred holes in his mind. As soon as he said this, Li Yunlong understood what he meant.
The organization said that it would be responsible for half of the funds, so it told Li Yunlong that he needed to raise half of the funds himself, which tacitly permitted the possibility of certain actions.
However, it is absolutely impossible to tell such a thing to others, because as long as Li Yunlong is given a hole as big as an embroidery needle, Li Yunlong can poke a hole as big as a water tank by turning around.
"Commander, can I ask you which area you are in charge of now?"
If Li Yunlong knew that he was in charge of an independent corps, the brigade commander might also be promoted.
"The Taiyue Military Region was established."
The brigade commander only said this lightly, but the meaning was very clear. From now on, this area will be under the jurisdiction of the brigade commander.
"Yes, Brigadier!"
Old Li knew that he would be under the jurisdiction of his own leader from now on. At least until the Japanese were driven out of China, he could not think of changing leaders.
"Brigade Commander, why don't we send a political commissar to our independent corps? I can do both the duties of regiment commander and political commissar by myself." Seeing that he couldn't get any other benefits, Lao Li thought about getting more freedom from the leadership.
"You are just dreaming, you want to throw Zhao Gang aside just like that?"
The brigade commander was about to pull out the belt he had just put on.
"Oh, oh, oh, how can that be possible? The work that Lao Zhao is in charge of now is much more important than ours. We can't delay his future."
Old Li now has a clear mind. Previously, Old Yu had been swindling money, calling in people, and buying equipment everywhere. Based on Old Li's understanding of Old Yu, he was definitely going to do something big, and it would definitely be an earth-shattering thing. At this moment, the closer one is to Old Yu, the greater the possibility of achieving success in the future.
Although this saying is not popular here, Lao Li still hopes that Lao Zhao can develop better and better. As a good brother, how could he possibly stop Lao Zhao?
"You kid, let me tell you, Zhao Gang has to be the political commissar of the independent corps. Your independent corps has been fighting a lot recently, it's time to rest up.
During the rest period, you will be responsible for the security work outside our 221 base.
This is the first mission since the establishment of your independent corps, and it is also the most important one. If there is any mistake, I will shoot you!"
The brigade commander would not tolerate Li Yunlong's bad habits, and he used both soft and hard tactics, and the combination of punches made Old Li submit.
"That's fine."
Li Yunlong had no choice but to obey the brigade commander's request.
"You're still unwilling!"
The brigade commander raised his brows.
"Yes, yes."
As soon as the brigade commander got angry, Lao Li no longer dared to show his teeth.
"I'll give you two days off. Comrade Xiuqin moved the Liaoyuan Textile Factory to Taiyuan and was very busy. How long has it been since you last visited her?"
After talking about work, the brigade commander also showed some concern for Li Yunlong's personal life.
Old Li chuckled, greeted the brigade commander, and walked out the door with a smile on his face as if he had eaten bee shit.
......
Yu Ye was not in a hurry to return to Base 221 during this period. He was still waiting for the Americans to send over the IBM computer, which was a very important equipment for subsequent work.
In addition to paying attention to this set of equipment, Yu Ye also investigated and inspected each factory in the Taiyuan City Industrial Zone.
After all, in addition to the "two bombs" project, he also served as the director of the Liaoyuan Arsenal and the deputy mayor in charge of industry. These two jobs are also very important, after all, they are related to the subsequent production capacity of heavy industry and light industry.
After taking over the industries left behind by the Japanese and the family assets left by Old Yan, Taiyuan City can now be said to have both light and heavy industries. It has initially shown its scale and has already entered the right track.
After visiting these factories one by one, Yu Ye couldn't help but sigh that Old Yan was really good to the entire Taiyuan at that time. Among all the forces before, he was the only one who actually developed Jin.
Among the various industries currently under construction or already in production in Taiyuan City, some are the old foundations he left behind when he was in Taiyuan, such as the Taiyuan Iron and Steel Plant. If Old Yan can turn back from his mistakes, he may still be the best candidate to manage Jin in the future.
There are also some simple factories that were temporarily built by the Japanese after the fall of the city in the past two years, but the Japanese did not intend to run them well, so they are all rather simple.
The largest number are the factories that we have cultivated this time.
Overall, heavy industry still accounts for more than 70%, and there is nothing we can do about it. The various funds and manpower we have currently invested must still be focused on improving military industrial capabilities and manufacturing various military equipment. After all, the development of light industry is only a by-product.
It is not a big problem during wartime, but when peacetime comes, we have to start adjusting the structure of light and heavy industries. By then, structural surpluses will become irreversible.
However, judging from the current progress, that will be at least 20 years later.
In another timeline, we were able to solve such complex problems. Now that we have such a good start, Yu Ye doesn't believe that we can't solve them.
